Happy Birthday, Mom! HSS458, PP727, IB325


Hey there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge for March.  I decided to use the Mixed Florals again this time and it works itself in perfectly for The Paper Players Theme Challenge #727: Spring Flowers.  These tulips are the perfect spring flower.  I really like the style of these flowers and I thing they are beautiful colored brightly!  I'm also playing along with Inspired By #325 because of the gingham.  I just love gingham anything and I've used it here in the designer paper and the ribbon.  
This card was lovingly made for my mom for her birthday on March 5th.  Happy Birthday, Mom!




Here's a list of my supplies.....
stamps: Mixed Florals, Elements of Text, Unbounded Love
Ink: Pretty in Pink light blend, Petunia Pop light and dark blends, Granny Apple Green blends, Daffodil Delight blends, memento black
Paper: Black, White, retired gingham, Granny Apple Green

Christmas Hodge-Podge HSS453

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Photo Inspiration Challenge for December.  Photo inspirations are a favorite of mine.  I drew from the colors in the bottom right photo.  
I used a ton of different products, current and retired, for this card.  That's why I named it Hodge-Podge Christmas.  See my supply list below for everything used.



This card has a ton of shimmer to it, which is hard to pick up in the photographs.  I brushed Tsukineko Champagne Mist ink over the background DSP after I embossed it with my Snowflake Sky EF.  I also ran my Encore gold embossing ink around the edges of the card to give a little antique feel.  
I used a sponge dauber and dabbed the Champagne Mist ink on just about every element on the card, except the pinecones, gold branches, and ribbon.  Everything else has a nice shimmer to it!
The snowflakes are especially pretty with the shimmer on them.  
The two trees are from a paper pack called He's the Man that was in the Summer Mini a few years back.  I thought these two little ready diecut trees fit in nicely here.  



Here's a list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Poinsettia Petals (sentiment inside the card)
Paper: Winter Meadow DSP, Black, Mossy Meadow, Cherry Cobbler, White, Gold Foil, Pecan Pie
Ink: Gold craft ink & Champagne Mist paint/ink (both are non-SU items), Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow
Accessories: Snowflake Sky EF, Snowfall Thinlits dies, Poinsettia dies, He's the Man DSP accessories, Christmas Pinecone dies, Drusy embellishments, gingham ribbon, gold cord, Cherry Cobble and Gold ribbon
